Trying for baby number 3

Sorry @HelloNope, I've had a chemical recently and it's heartbreaking. Look after yourself!

Agree about the time, only managed once during the fertile period this cycle 🙄

@Bex1010 YES! That's exactly how I feel, swinging between definitely want this to this is mad stop now! And definitely agree this one is a much bigger decision! With DC1 DH was desperate for a baby and just waiting for me to decide I was ready and one day I just knew I wanted a baby. DC2 also a super easy decision, we knew we definitely wanted 2 and a small age gap. I had a CS with DC1 so we waited till he turned 1 and started trying and got pregnant straight away

Number 3 is a much bigger decision with no obvious answer which I'm really struggling with

Period arrived late yesterday so at least that wasn't too bad. Only 3 days late, not 75!!! Will try again next month but won't be doing any ovulation tests or particularly tracking, just going to carry on as normal minus contraception and see if it happens or not

Hi @table4chairs sounds like very similar ages to mine. Agree re finding the time to DTD, just so knackered!

Hello, can I join? We have been trying since September for #3 with no luck. I think part of it is finding time to dtd frequently enough.

I fell first time with my other two who are 3.5 years and 18 months. And feeling like my age (37) is the reason it's taking longer?

AF was due yesterday but it hasn't come yet, but I can feel that it's on its way and it's not that I'm pregnant. And I forgot to POAS this morning anyway.

Hi everyone! Can I join? I'm almost 35 with 3 year old and 20 month old. Second month of TTC and AF due this weekend. Scared to test as had a chemical last month.

Was pregnant first time with other two!

@satelliteheart I absolutely hear you on not knowing if it's the right decision!! I swing from thinking it's a great idea to what the hell am I doing! It's definitely a very conscious decision for us with the third, feels a lot more planned than 1 and 2. Can't imagine what a day at home with a newborn and two other kids will be like?! Plus morning sickness with two little ones!!

Aaaaagh!

Sorry for all the disappointment today - it’s so hard to plan anything when you don’t know when/if it’s going to happen. That’s what I’m struggling with at the moment.
On my first month of trying in December I began spotting 5 days before AF due and I hoped it was implantation but then period started properly 2 days later and 3 days earlier than due. It was like hoping I was pregnant messed up my cycle completely and totally messed with my head. Skipped a month in January and now going to try again this month. Long cycles feel like I have ages to wait!
Hope for positive news from you ladies soon x

Sorry for all the disappointment this morning. It’s so bloody tough.

@Holly3 just looked at your CB from yesterday and I think it looks more like an evap if I’m honest. I had one very like that last cycle alongside a very convincing indent on a FRER 🤬

I’m CD4 today, pleased this part is nearly over now, usually finish period today. And the TTC will commence next week. Still haven’t decided if I’ll do CB digital Ov tests aswell as cheapies

*and upwards

Not good news here either, pretty sure AF has arrived on CD24, pink CM from yesterday is now definitely red. Onwards onwards next month for us. Good luck ladies!

Hi ladies,
I've woken up to some spotting after I went for a wee. I've never had a chemical pregnancy before but I'm wondering if this is one because today/tomorrow is when my period was predicted to start.
I really will be gutted :(
I didn't have any spotting this early with DC1&2.

I'm going to go and get another test and see what it says but I'm not sure if I should just wait.

@dani9031 I did a FRER this morning and can't see anything I'm super confused. Going to TRY and not test until Monday Atleast xx

Hi everyone. I’m on month 11 of TTC my third. Conceived my first and second without any issues but now we’ve been referred to fertility clinic this time. I had my second when I was 32, started trying this time 20 months later and nothing 😭. I just turned 35 at Xmas x

Hi,

Can i join? We are ttc for a 3rd but it doesn’t happen this month we are going to stop for a few months as we have a holiday abroad early May and wanted to be 12 weeks plus. I have a 5 and 2 year old.

Currently in the 2ww and I hate it. 4 dpo and I feeling a bit warmer than normal but I’m over thinking. Also over thinking if we are out of our minds having another…but definitely my last haha

Congratulations @Ellie1311 ❤️❤️

I'm not convinced by the line I'm just not sure, going to test with FMU tomorrow with a FRER and see. Hope everyone is doing ok?? Xx

Congratulations @Ellie1311 great news. I know the feeling with chemicals but I have everything crossed for you and positive thoughts.

@Holly3 that is definitely positive congratulations!

Fingers crossed @Pheepa!

@satelliteheart I'm trying to think like that also be delighted if we get pregnant with a 3rd but okay if not.
I was also up with my 2 year old from 12am - 4am last night so Don't know how I would handle a newborn also 😆

Now I say that now... once my period comes I will be on amazon getting more ovulation tests I bet 🙈

Nothing to report here. Getting a few cramps , boobs sore but that could be normal for me also. Only DPO6 so not expecting much.

Congratulations to you both! Looks positive to me @Holly3

I've just had a bit of pink CM when I wiped so looking like AF may be on the way early. Suppose it could be implantation bleeding (I'm 10 DPO I think). Next 12 hours will tell I imagine! Why does this have to so stressful with every possible symptom of this being your month also being a symptom of it not being?! It's a wonder anyone TTC actually manages it with all the stress and unknown!

I think I already know the answer but is this an evap line? It's blue in colour more so in real life! X

Number three here and got my BFP this morning at 10 dpo but had a few chemicals last year so not getting excited at all xx

Second test today was negative so apparently my periods have just vanished like they did when we TTC DC1. Frustrating but Dh and I had a chat this morning and have agreed that if it doesn't happen then that's fine, we've got two gorgeous children which is more than many people so we're not going to stress out about number 3

I don't test unless I suspect I'm pregnant! I'm pretty good with my cycle and knowing then I'm ovulating etc each time I 'knew' I was pregnant. Early testing otherwise would drive me mad and I'd be doing it hourly 😆

@MummyMe87 so sorry about your ectopic and tube
